TiC reinforced titanium matrix functionally graded materials （FGM） has been produced by processes of laser metal deposition through changing the powder feed rate of Ti and Cr3C2 powder. The OM, SEM, EDS methods were used to analyze the components and microstructure of the coatings. Microhardness and wearing resistance at room temperature of the FGM coating were examined by microhardness tester and wear tester respectively. The results show that FGM coating reinforced by in-situ TiC apparently improved hardness of Ti alloy; the microhardness can reach HV1100, and present gradient distribution along deposition direction. Dry sliding wear properties of these FGM coatings have been compared with substrate materials wearing. The observed wearing mechanisms are summarized and related to detailed microstructural observations. The results show the wear resistance of the coating can be improved by 46.6 times.

Microstructure And Mechanical Property

Referring to the ultrasonic vibration effect on casting, welding and laser cladding, the paper demonstrates the feasibility that it can be also used in Laser Metal Deposition(LMD)of titanium alloy to protect the defects such as crack,pore and oxidation and refine the grain size and improve the distribution uniformity of solidified structure.So the paper applies ultrasonic vibration system to fabricate the functionally graded materials(FGMs) samples and analyses its effect on the specimen microstructure and mechanical property by experiments.The results show that ultrasonic vibration can suppress the formation of pore、refine the grain and make the TiC hard phase more homogeneous in the FGMs parts, which is also indicated by the microhardness tests

In this paper, the synthesis of four-layered functionally graded materials (FGMs) samples of (TiB2)pNi/(TiB2)p(Ni+Ni3Al)/ Ni3Al with different metallic substrate (Ni, Cu and Cr-Ni steel) by field-activated and pressure-assisted synthesis process (FAPAS) was investigated. It was shown that the imposition of the electric field and the combustion reaction of Ni3Al is the key for the successful synthesis of the FGMs during process. The exothermal reaction of the powder of nickel and aluminum during combustion enhanced the diffusion bonding in the interfaces subsequently. The microstructure, phase composition of the interfaces and mechanical properties of the graded materials were characterized, which showed indicative formation of firm bonds by the combustion reactive process. The samples have an excellent thermal shock resistance ability and gradient distribution of micro-hardness across the substrate layers and the surface layer.
